This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Belavia operates in the transportation sector as a large airline company with a long history since 1996. Its business model focuses on passenger air travel, cargo services, and ancillary offerings such as transfers and hotel bookings. The company leverages partnerships for loyalty programs and hotel services, enhancing customer retention and cross-selling opportunities. The website's content and structure reflect a mature digital strategy with clear navigation, multilingual support, and integration of analytics for marketing insights. The presence of official certifications and contact information reinforces trust. The airline's market position as the national carrier provides competitive advantages, including regulatory support and brand recognition. Growth indicators include new route announcements and service expansions visible in news sections. The partnership ecosystem includes loyalty program platforms and hotel booking services, indicating strategic diversification.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent implemented, reflecting compliance with privacy laws such as GDPR. Input validation is present on forms, reducing injection risks. However, the absence of visible security headers like Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options suggests potential areas for enhancement. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The lack of publicly available incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies indicates a gap in transparency and readiness communication. Overall, the security posture is solid for a commercial airline website but would benefit from adopting advanced security headers, publishing incident response details, and continuous vulnerability management to mitigate emerging threats and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to comply with WCAG standards, improving usability for users with disabilities.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate risks from known vulnerabilities.
  5. Maintain and communicate data retention policies and privacy practices clearly to strengthen GDPR compliance and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern front-end stack with jQuery, jQuery UI, and Slick Carousel for UI components and interactivity. Analytics are primarily handled via Yandex Metrika with Google Tag Manager scripts present but commented out. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO meta tags and multilingual support. Hosting is managed through Belarus-based providers with a domain registered since 2002, indicating stable infrastructure. Performance is moderate with asynchronous script loading and cookie management. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in security headers and accessibility could modernize the platform further. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary solution. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports business operations effectively with opportunities for security and accessibility enhancements.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
